I get my boys stuff in H&M or gap normally....or primark.

but then, I don;t care if they have labels or slogans or pirates etc....all that matters to me is if they match their eyes/personality/trousers I just bought from next!!!

sophiebbb · 18/04/2008 21:59

Definitely Boden. I LOVE their stuff - really bright and colourful with cool pictures and words on some of the stuff, great patterns etc. Plus we get 10% off from mumsnet plus it is worth waiting for the sales - they have some really good discounts if you get in there early.

Also TKMaxx - if you keep popping in and out you can pick up some good things. I bought some great Bench trousers for the summer for DS at good prices

I also like Jojomamanbebe - pricey - but again look out for the sales as they have genuine bargains

Little White Company have some lovely classic things for boys but expensive - again I wait for the sales!!!

Like this thread because boys clothes always seem so samey...

Aztec have some lovely boys clothes. I have got some bits for my DS's from there & they are really different.

sophiebbb · 18/04/2008 22:01

Oh I forgot - the place I LOVE is the Swedish brand P.O.P (I think that is it). However I can only find it in House of Fraser in Norwich and Oxford Street. Again, really pricey but wait for the sales to kick in and they have good 50% discounts.

cornsilk · 18/04/2008 22:02

Are you near a Selfridges? I got my ds's some lovely tops by a brand called No Added Sugar.

ButterflyMcQueen · 18/04/2008 22:02

nappyaddict · 18/04/2008 22:06

what do people think about clothes that have lions, giraffes, monkeys, dogs, rabbits on etc. or are some animals cutesy and others are ok?

ButterflyMcQueen · 18/04/2008 22:06

Giraffes are OK, because DS loves giraffes ...

Malene · 18/04/2008 22:10

If anyone out there would give me a bit of feedback on the stuff I sell on www.kidsshouldbekids.co.uk I would be most grateful. The quality is brilliant, import the stuff from Denmark. Lots of stripy, colourful tops. Any feedback would be fantastic - thank you. So appreciate a little help!

ButterflyMcQueen · 18/04/2008 22:11
